[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial application field] The present invention is for scooping cooked rice,
It relates to a functional rice scoop used for stirring stir-fried foods.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Scoops made of synthetic resin are widely used as scoops for scooping cooked rice, miso and the like, but there is a drawback that rice grains and the like tend to stick to each other. As in, the surface of rice scoops is tetrafluorinated ethylene resin (polytetrafluoroethylene)
Or a mixture of fine powder of tetrafluoroethylene resin when injection-molding with a polyolefin synthetic resin, such as JP-B-55-30435,
Japanese Patent No. 49644 has been proposed in which an impregnated carrier layer of fluorine-based resin fine particles is formed on the surface of polyolefin.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device] However, the functional rice scoop of the present invention not only scoops and stirs cooked rice, but also stirs cooked foods such as stir-fried foods, stewed foods and curries, and also as a spatula to turn inside out. It is used (in this case, the shape is not necessarily circular, but the one with a flat tip is often used). These scoops are not only rubbed with scrubbing brushes or hard sponges at the time of washing, but also stir-fried foods are used at high temperature, and the tip is often rubbed with a frying pan or other cooking utensils.

Therefore, as in the prior art, in the case where the surface of the synthetic resin is coated or impregnated with the tetrafluoroethylene resin, the resin on the inner side is partially exposed due to abrasion or scratches on the surface, and the non-adhesive effect is obtained. Not only is it lost in a short period of time and sticky substances tend to adhere to the surface, but also the tetrafluoroethylene film coated on the frying pan and the like is damaged. Further, mixing the tetrafluororesin fine powder during injection molding has a drawback that slipping or insufficient kneading occurs during molding, which makes molding difficult.

Although it is conceivable to mold the entire scoop with ethylene tetrafluoride resin, the tetrafluoride resin is relatively flexible and has a large thickness in order to maintain the strength required for operation. Not suitable for. Further, since this resin cannot be melted and molded, injection molding cannot be carried out and it was not actually realized.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention uses a tetrafluoroethylene resin plate of an appropriate thickness integrally provided with an operating portion having a required shape and a grip portion having a width narrower than that of the operating portion. By bending and binding in the width direction, the material is reduced and the required shape and strength are maintained.

[0007]

[Function] By bending the grip portion in a substantially U shape, this portion retains a large strength, and by binding the connecting portion with the operation portion, the operation portion in the portion following the grip portion is curved and also in the operation portion. It has the necessary strength and becomes a scoop shape, which is easily scooped when scooping cooked rice.

[0008]

EXAMPLE An example shown in the drawings will be described below. 1
Is an operation part having a required shape, and 2 is a grip part that is continuous with the operation part and has a width smaller than that of the operation part. 3 is a binding piece provided in the grip portion, 4 is a binding hole, 5 is a hanging hole, and 6 is a binding portion of the binding piece.

As shown in FIG. 3, the operating portion 1 and the grip portion 2 are integrally formed from a tetrafluoroethylene resin plate having an appropriate thickness, for example, about 2 mm, and the grip portion 2 is folded in two in the width direction. , U-shaped by bending the grip portion 2 into several portions including the base portion and the tip end portion of the grip portion 2 through the binding holes 3 from both side edges through the binding holes 3 to bind the grip portion 2 in the U shape. Hold it.

The binding piece 3 may be a stainless ring, but is made of a non-adhesive fluorine resin such as ethylene tetrafluoride ethylene resin (ETFE) or pearl fluoroethylene propylene resin (FEP). It is preferable to use a band.

By bending the grip portion 2 in the width direction, strength is given to the grip portion made of a flexible thin plate of tetrafluoroethylene resin, and the grip portion side of the operation portion 1 is slightly curved so that the operation portion 1 Also has an appropriate strength, and is kept in a shape that makes it easy to scoop rice and the like.

In the embodiment, a binding band is used as a binding piece, and the binding portion 6 is placed inside the grip portion so as to prevent the protrusion to the outside so that cooked rice or the like is not caught only in the connection portion with the operation portion. Although they are bound on the outside, they do not stick to each other, so they may be bound on the inside to eliminate the protrusion.

FIG. 4 shows another embodiment formed in the shape of a spatula,
Since the operating portion 1 is longer than the circular shape, even if the grip portion 2 of the operating portion 1 bends due to bending of the grip portion 2, the tip end portion is held flat, and a deflection convenient for stirring stir-fried food or the like occurs. The binding portion 6 on the operation portion side shown in the figure may be bound inside.

[0014]

As described above, according to the present invention, the operating portion 1 and the grip portion 2 are integrally formed of a tetrafluoroethylene resin plate, and the grip portion is bent and held in the width direction. There are few, it is easy to manufacture, the heat resistance that can be continuously used is as high as 260 °, rice cooked at 100 to 130 °, and fried foods 150
It can withstand use at temperatures up to 190 °, can be sterilized by boiling, and has stable performance against detergents and chemicals.

Moreover, not only do sticky substances such as cooked rice and stir-fried foods or stains do not adhere, but there is no need to pre-moisten with water as in the conventional case at the time of use, and it is easy to wash after use, and it is easy to wear after use It has the advantage that the effect is not impaired even if scratches or scratches occur, and even if the rice is slimy or powder dissolved in water adheres to the surface, it can be easily washed just by washing with water. Since rice etc. do not adhere to the rice scoop like this,
Even if you use a rice scoop, it keeps it clean without sticking rice etc., and not only the rice scoop itself but the related equipment is hygienic. It should be noted that the bending of the grip by the bending of the operating portion provides a shape that is easy to scoop and provides appropriate strength and deflection, so that scooping and cooking of stir-fried food can be efficiently performed.

Furthermore, since the rice scoop itself has a small coefficient of friction, even if it is stir-fried, it will slip even if it comes into contact with the bottom of a pan or frying pan, and it will not only make cooking easier without requiring extra force, It does not cause abrasion or damage to cooking utensils such as pots that sometimes come into contact, and in particular, it does not damage the coating of ethylene tetrafluoride coated on the cooking utensils, so that the life of the coating can be extended. Is obtained.
